| Caarol watercolor 14 x 10 |
is a watercolor portrait done in my class. It was Halloween and masks served both as a holiday bit of fun, as well as a device to avoid too much detail in the way of likeness.
Although it is a bit messier than my usual, I still like it. Some of the usual slower deliberation and care were sacrificed for the goal of speed. I think that this would be my choice over the don-over-several-days of careful painting where details and smoothness of strokes can easily disintegrate into a plastic-like feel.
Sometimes these works are more honest?
